>>Here is one term that disgusts me. Power Breakfast. What is a “Power Breakfast”? For those that have not enjoyed this term, a “Power Breakfast” is a business meeting at which breakfast is served. It normally begins before “regular business hours” so everyone can hear the top executives, and industrial physiologists inspire the work force to greater things before the start of a normal business day.

Can't get to it. Our 'not-so-smart filter' blocks it on the basis that it is 'humour'. Reminds me of a Dilbert cartoon in which the boss is going to ban the pinning up of cartoons because they're bad for morale. Dilbert says to him, "So you're going to increase morale by banning humour?"
In fact, one of our guys here used to go regularly to the Dilbert site to get cartoons for his presentations - until they blocked it in the name of productivity.
Of course, he
is much more productive now. (snicker)
